If you're lucky, and good, you might be given a couple of cans of paint from your local hardware store, to help you on the way - but that would be the icing on the tip of the social media cake.
Few of us would have the energy or knowhow to turn their reno into a part time side hustle that's both creatively fulfilling, and engaging.
But that's exactly what Moochstyle's Shayden and Georgia Whipps have done - with some pawsome help from their gorgeous dog Frankie. They've been blogging their Christchurch villa reno since they bought their home and Shayden shared their story with us for the final episode of First Rung, our podcast. A first time homeowner and renovator, Shayden is such an inspiring guy to chat with. He makes you want to jump in and give it go. Check out his story and let us know what you think.

Meet Parminder Singh (Punjabi) who shares his journey with Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi:
“Studying in the Pōkaitahi Reo programme has allowed me to develop a totally beautiful and unique relationship with Māori communities in Auckland. The learning has helped my work to bridge gaps between Māori and others in our multicultural communities. When I look back, I feel really proud. It’s a great feeling when I speak te reo Māori. It’s a privilege.”

I am giving thought to publishing 2 books, one of my husbands excellent art work and one of my own contribution.
I have until Saturday to make up my mind. It is very expensive.
So has anyone in neighbourly had any dealings with Xlibris?
I would be interested in any feedback at all..

Thieves broke into their storage shed during the weekend and spread faeces over the group's materials and containers.
The ladies, who meet at the Howick Ambulance station hall, donate all their profits to St John.
Culprits also stole suitcases and three Christmas hampers which the ladies put together out of their own money for a fundraising raffle for Howick Ambulance.
The teddies and quilt are all handmade.
Have you seen these handmade items?
